Everyone’s A Critic - Skola Gambar Enrique de Malacca

Tales of the Magellan-Elcano expedition of 1519 is often told through a Eurocentric lens. Ahmad Fuad Osman's Enrique de Malacca Memorial Project revisits the historic journey through the perspective of an enslaved Malay sailor and interpreter named Enrique de Malacca. We review the exhibition and discuss how it de-centres the Western gaze.
